can I be obvious and say that so many Tv ads, specially mens cosmetics, cars, station promos and sports shows have had jungley stuff in them since timeless came out. this seems to be worldwide

I have really noticed this in recent months, DnB is starting to pop up everywhere. you'll hear it all the time on Top Gear, but it still seems to be ignored by the masses. (which imo can only be a good thing, if it gets too mainstream it'll become poppy cheesy bollocks)

Dnb doesn't really influence much music outside of it. Garage is more influenced by US Garage and House. It has the MC culture as well but old skool hardcore had the MC thing as well as did dub which has an influence in most UK music coming out of London.

Drum and bass draws more influences from outside I'd say since it became drum and bass and not jungle any more.
